Why Vegan?  The difference between vegetarian and vegan is (basically) eggs and dairy.  Some of the same benefits apply here. Even less saturated fat and cholesterol Less environmental impact.

White and Green Tea  These teas, when brewed for 3-4 minutes and served fresh (not bottled) contain powerful antioxidants. Let’s go back to the story on Oprah. Consuming up to 85 mg of caffeine a day has been shown to reduce the risk of Parkinson’s disease and help treat asthma and headaches. Using honey or agave nectar instead of sugar in your tea will add antioxidants and (with agave) reduce spikes in blood sugar levels.
